fact one man was frantic yelling out he was sorry and they wanted to help the young victim but the car appeared to be on fire so everybody backed away. >> i want topped help her, but i couldn't. it was a young female and just people want to drive fast but they don't understand these are muscle cars and everything, 0 to see a young life go away like that for no reason, it is sad. >> that witness said he saw a number of people going away or driving away from this crash scene before police could arrive and he said street racing is common here on richmond parkway and they have not said whether they have reached out to investigators and we are still waiting at this point to hear back. it led to a widespread power

practice of hiding tens of millions and a agreements with the city. >> reporter: it is known as a shell game where deceptive moves were made to outside entities and they suspect it's going to outside businesses and they could strip matrix of its gaming certificates and they are in the process of getting ahold of their attorney to see what sort of response they have. janine de la vega ktvu channel 2 morning news. they reopened early this morning after being shut down for hours after a crash and fire. traffic was backed up for miles yesterday after a car knocked out a power pole near the concord pittsburgh border about 5:30 yesterday afternoon.
